Top 10 absolute favorite books? It was hard narrowing my list to only 10. Most of the books I value I tend to view as supplements to the Heroes Unlimited game, but surprisingly all 10 of my favorites weren't limited to Heroes Unlimited support - just most of them.

  • Heroes Unlimited 2nd Edition
  • Powers Unlimited 1
  • Powers Unlimited 2
  • Nightbane
  • Nightbane Book 3: Through the Glass Darkly
  • Chaos Earth: The Rise of Magic
  • Rifts: Book of Magic
  • Robotech (original main book)
  • Robotech Book 5: Invid Invasion (original book)
  • Splynn Dimensional Market

I'm going to also give honorable mentions to the following books that only narrowly missed being on that list, because they're awesome and deserve being mentioned anyway: Heroes Unlimited GM's Guide, Aliens Unlimited Galaxy Guide, Century Station, Rifts: Ultimate Edition, Rifts: Conversion Book 1, Shemmarian Nation, and Transdimensional TMNT.

Temporal Wizard O.C.C. update 0.8 | Rifts random encounters
New Fire magic | New Temporal magic
Grim Gulf, the Nightlands version of Century Station

Aw man. I forgot about Atlantis and Splynn. Those two are awesome. Well, I'll put them to the side as substitutes.
